I was surprised to see the cult gem MR NOBODY resurfacing on film news sites today, before I realised that it never had an official US release. The 2009 film has been gradually released around the world over the course of the last 4 years. It was released on DVD here in the UK 2 years ago, but better late than never as I always say. Set in 2092, the oldest man in the world settles down to tell a reporter about the three loves of his life. However, his stories soon contradict each other. Jared Leto plays the 118 year old man, Nemo, in what is a stirring performance. MR NOBODY has gained quite the following, and it is a mixture of beautiful emotional moments and trippy narrative jumps. I can assure anyone yet to see the film that it is indeed brilliant and well worth a look.
MR NOBODY is to be released in the US on iTunes and On Demand from 26th September and a limited theatrical run from 1st November. It stars Jared Leto, Sarah Polley, Diane Kruger, Linh-Dan Pham, Rhys Ifans, Natasha Little, Toby Regbo and Juno Temple.
